The coin is very expensive even considering the low mintage.
Image lends itself to colour which makes coin come to life.

Fun way to save a little. The only thing that needs improving would be a short email to let you know the coin has shipped

Oh! The Box is Different Then Expected!

I anxiously awaited the 2nd coin in the series. Collecting both coins and maps this set was a no brainer for me. What really attracted me was the original marketing material for the series last Fall led me to believe the display box would have the Map on top! But it didn't. I went back to look at the site and see that the there is now a picture of the cardboard box and the wooden box. Guess I slipped on the deatils for this one. Lake Superior, I guess has deeper parts so there is more dense blue on the coin then Lake Ontario. Looking forward to see the other coins. With silver prices down fron their highs 2-years ago, do you thnk the Mint will bring the coin prices back to the 2012 levels anytime soon?

The first Superior coin may outshine Ontario, but the depth of both Lakes is displayed like a nautical map. Very detailed. The blues are exquisite folks!

Wrong title?

great looking coin. However, I believe this coin should weigh 1 oz, not 1/2 oz as in the title?
